Soil Field CBR

The Field California Bearing Ratio (CBR) test is an in-situ testing method used to evaluate the strength and bearing capacity of soil, typically for subgrade materials in road and pavement construction. The test measures the resistance of soil to penetration under controlled conditions, providing an indication of its ability to support loads. The CBR value obtained is used to design pavement thickness and assess soil suitability for construction projects.

Applications:

• Road and highway construction
• Airfield pavement design
• Railway trackbed assessment
• Foundation design for structures
